View Full Version : Trying To Tame My CPP


Wrongway

As a newbee I felt I needed to slow down the response on my CPP so I moved the linkage in one hole on the servo arm. Now my blade won't get off the ground. Can I increase the pitch of the blades? Any suggestions are appreciated.

You're doing it all wrong way!!
heh.

After you move the hole on the servo horns you will need to adjust the swash back to its original position. Put it back to original holes, use magic marker on shaft with everything power on. Move the holes and then using the linkages adjust the swash position.

easy to way to see if the swash level is. Remove the blades, spin up the heli with flybars only. see if the the flybars rotor disc is level, adjust as needed. Heli won't take off with fly bars only. Move the Right stick around and see how it move, it will give you better understanding of the flybar system and actually help you fly better.

Oh don't forget to unplug the tail motor when you do that.

Thanks for the advice. actually suspected that might be the case but without your advice I would have adjusted the wrong links. I was going to increase the pitch and most likely overload the motor.
